Episode 04: Hurry

Episode 06: Reality

What reality are you constructing for yourself? Do you live by the reality constructed for you by the media, advertising, and the culture? Or have you glimpsed a better, truer reality since lockdown?

Episode 05: Gratitude

The effects of gratitude on our mental health, mood, and relationships are so positive. So why do we have to try so hard to recall things we're grateful for, and not forget? With our plans, our freedom and our certainty are taken away, maybe now is the time to see what we had all along. Features a clip, with permission, from Lion of Judah's latest single, 'Grateful' feat. Drakeford released last week.

Episode 04: Hurry

Hustle and Hurry characterise so much of our lives - from the innocent life-hacks of multi-tasking and queue-hopping to the frantic burnout-inviting rush, it's inbuilt into our schedules and our mindsets. But maybe hurry is a far greater enemy than a friend. We need to slow down, and maybe this pandemic is showing us how.

Episode 03: Uncertainty

There's a reason we make plans for tomorrow, the week ahead, even a five-year plan. We like to know what's going to happen and when. But when these things become uncertain, we don't really know what to do. In this episode, we look at how we can learn to live in uncertainty in a world that teaches us to have our lives the way we want it, when we want it.

Episode 02: Worship

Since we started 'staying home', we have all given the time we used to spend socialising, travelling or working to something else. But what are these things, and are they worthy of our focus and our time? In this episode we look at the idea of 'worship', and what these self-isolated times are exposing about what we choose, or don't choose, to give our time and attention to, and how that's working for us.
